"NEVEIl A CKOSS' WORD" "
By Alice dodson Penle
Wo hear of homes where there is
I never a oross word, where there are
, no loud voices, no arguments, no out
bursts of Irritation.
What effect lias such an . atmos
,phere upon the children in it?
That depends, and depends wholly
upon what the fine smooth surface
J really signifies. ,
I . Does it mean that father and
mother are really loyal, fond and
: happy with each other?
j Does it mean that beyond this they
i have also the self control which en
jables them to preserve friendliness
and graciousness even at the inevit
able trying moments? : , - '.
Then the children -are lucky,, in
i deed. For the fact that they never
(hear a cross word spoken is but .an
outward sign of the inner soundness
of their family life.
But such homes, human nature be
ing what it is, must be rare. .
.What is far more likely is that the
perfectly polite home is a suppressed
home where the adults are bitterly
determined to outdo one another in
preserving the surf noe, no matter
what inner storms may be raging,
what . rankling grudges ' may lie
beneath. '
In such an atmosphere tho child i
senses the true state of things and. his
own developing character faithfully
reflects every distressing undercur
rent. There is probably nothing so numb
ing, so frustrating, to his affection
ate impulses as living with those who
practice this type of spiritual dis-
I honesty. It makes him feel that noth
ing is worth whUe.
Far mor0 wholesome it is for the
growing child to live with adulls who,
while they feel responsibility for mak
ing life run as smoothly as possible,
yet behave honestly, o'OBervrng as best
they can the spirit of lovo rather than
its letter.

only ono way 6eo:ncd tenable. Pres
ton sold cattle on tho hoof, tho same
aa other ranchers. Nono but rus
tlers ever sold cattle that did not
belong to them. And certainly I'rca
ton could not bo a rustler. It was'
inconceivable that Ash Preston
could be a rustler, either, at least
without his father knowing. But
Rock scouted tbe rustler idea.
Tbo Prestons had become butch
ers of cattio on a considerable
scale. Did any one, outside thom
solvcn, know Just bow many steers
they butchered? What a pertinent
question here! Rock was certain
that ho would find out that no out
siders knew how many head of stock
they killed. And hero was tho gist
of tho matter. ::.
Some ot tbo Prestons, with Ash
at tbo head, and tho father either In
with them or unablo to prevent It,
wcro killing cattle not their own,
burning or biding the skins, and
selling tho beef at near and distant
points.
"Good Lord!" muttered Rock, un

No now thing tor Rock was it to

Mrs. Preston looked out of tbe

lileasant smile and words.
''Are tho boys up, too?" he asked
as lie fell, upon the ham and eggs
and hot biscuits.
"Land's sake! They're up an' gone
long ago," she replied. "They were

"Ob, Thiry was up hours ago,"

"That's too bad," caid Rock, bend

Ho had seen the mother's faco
chango very slightly, almost Imper
ceptibly. Ash Preston was a thorn
in tho flesh ot tills whoicsomo

Rock mado short work of his
breakfast, and glad somehow that
bo had not encountered Thiry, ho
hurried down toward tbo corrals.
At the barnyard Rock found AI
Preston leading tir somo horses;

The other boy noddca at Rock. '
"Are you Tom or Harry?" asked
Rock, suddenly reminded of tbe
twins. ,-
"I'm Harry." '
"All right, Harry, I'll know you
tomorrow or bust. Whore's Tom?"
"Ho left us to grease tho wagon'
